Hi Andy,
an exceptional build. Is this the Legends conversion ? Where could I get that mag from. Never heard of it ?!

Very Nice Andy. I haven't heard of IDF Model Magazine either but would like to read more about your project. Can you tell more about it?

Now THAT is a TANK The white seems too bright though (or it may be due to the camera )

hi gang, thanks for the comments!, always appreciated. As for the magazine, i apologise for the description of the magazine, it is Model, run by Fabien Descamps. It is part 1 of 2 special Israeli armour editions they have put together..

Hi guys

Good news. Back issues of the mag are in the Squadron June sales flyer for .99 . I picked up one last month, and am picking up two more this month. They are really great.
Now to the real reason for this reply. Andy, all I can say is I love it ! The conversion came out great. I love the weathering. If I could just ask a couple of questions ? One, what is that color ? Is it a shade of Olive Drab or is it a orginal mix ? I have some IDF pieces on the "To do List" for later this summer and am trying to track down the right colors. Last question, any chance of seeing a reprint of your article on Armorama ? I think it would be a real safe bet that it would be a big help to many many of us .
